Hi,
thanks for the answer. One thing: what do you mean for "but not binary 
identical"?
>From the manual mdrun says:
"The only disadvantage of dynamic load balancing is that runs are no longer 
binary reproducible, but
in most cases this is not important"

this sentence is also not very clear to me.

thanks in advance

Regards

andrea
